load into controller?

[ralyodio]

How do I load this thing into my controller so I get _?

Do you mean https://github.com/floydsoft/angular-underscore#load-api-only ?

[sandrocsimas]

Yes, but how to use ?

[ralyodio]

I ended up just doing this:

    .run(function ($rootScope, $location, Auth) {

        //expose lodash to templates
        $rootScope._ = _;

        });
    });

Another way:

var underscore = angular.module('underscore', []);
underscore.factory('_', function() {
    return window._;
});

Can this be done in the angular-underscore library? I would like to use it like so:

angular.module('myApp', ['angular-underscore'])
.controller('MyCtrl', function($scope, _) {

});

It does seem a little silly that you can't just have underscore injected into a controller.

@floydsoft would it be reasonable to add in something like this:

.constant('_', _)

I could submit a PR if you'd accept it.

@chovy @sandro-csimas @ScreenDriver : Oops, I finally found that I forgot adding document of how to access the underscore utilities from controller, in the current version, the utilities is bound on the $rootScope which means we can access the functions of underscore by $scope such as:

angular.module('myApp', ['angular-underscore'])
.controller('MyCtrl', function($scope) {
    $scope.sample([1, 2, 3]); // got 1, or 2, or 3.
    $scope._([1, 2, 3]); // underscore's chain, http://underscorejs.org/#chain
});

@jarcoal PR is welcome!
